In the first 48 hours after the National Park Service began enforcing a camping ban in McPherson Square and Freedom Plaza, Park Police made no arrests, and Occupiers appeared to be staying put. And though the National Park Service has been criticized from Capitol Hill to city hall for being too lenient on Occupy DC, Sgt. David Schlosser said Park Service will continue to take a measured, incremental approach to the protesters.

Schlosser says the ban on sleeping in the park is being enforced, but that police are aiming for voluntary compliance from protesters.
